Auxiliary contact for GZ1 circuit breaker 2NO GZ1AN20

Auxiliary contact – expanding the functionality of circuit breakers

This auxiliary contact, designed for circuit breakers in the GZ1 series, is a key element in expanding electrical installations. It allows adding additional control and signaling circuits, increasing the flexibility and adaptability of the system to specific needs. Side mounting ensures easy installation and integration with existing infrastructure.

Construction and application

The GZ1AN20 auxiliary contact is a module with two normally open contacts (2NO) that mounts on the side of the GZ1 circuit breaker. Its main function is to provide additional contact points that can be used for various purposes – from controlling other devices, through signaling the status of the circuit breaker, to implementing complex logical algorithms in automation systems. Screw connections guarantee secure and durable electrical connections.

• Expanded functionality: Additional contacts allow connection of external control or signaling circuits.
• Versatility: Compatible with GZ1 circuit breakers, making it easier to modernize and expand existing installations.
• Safety: Ensures reliable operation and connection durability thanks to the solid construction and screw connections.
• Easy installation: Side mounting simplifies the installation process and minimizes system downtime.

Characteristics and operating parameters

The GZ1AN20 auxiliary contact is designed to operate in demanding industrial conditions. The rated operating current for AC-15 at 230V is 6A, allowing control of various loads. A modular design ensures compact dimensions and easy integration with other system elements.

It is worth remembering that this contact does not have fault signaling contacts, normally closed or changeover contacts – its function is solely to provide additional normally open (NO) contacts. This makes it an ideal solution for applications requiring simple expansion of the circuit breaker's functionality without the need for complex configurations.
